I am glad they only had 60 days to do this!! What incompetence! And, I hope you realize they are paid $10,000 more than the guidance departments at higher achieving local schools like Oliver Ames, Stoughton, or even West Bridgewater!

What is being done in Brockton? I just checked out a site called schooldigger.com which rates schools in the state. Out of 343 school systems in the state we are rated at 338!!!! Wow...is that pathetic! Why are we punishing our children with such low expectations and poor performance. Is it time to clean house??? We cannot change the students.............so is it time to change the administration which is producing such pathetic results!

A new school year will start on Wednesday with upgrades at the Davis School, a new K-5 configuration at the Raymond School, updated security – and the return of middle-school sports, the victim last year of budget cuts.

Children will also return on four fewer school buses – and without 70 teachers and other classroom staff who lost their jobs in June, School Superintendent Kathleen Smith said.
“I am walking a fine balance,” Smith said, after two years of unstable budgets.
“I have lost teachers to other districts, who just wanted to gobble them up,” she said.
